Here is a song that is also dear to my heart, composed by one of the greatest music directors in the Malayalam film industry, Raveendran. Originally sung by Yesudas, the song Thenum Vayambum from the movie of the same name became quite a hit in the early 1980s.

thenum vayambum...
unarumee gaanam...
One of my favorite melodies of all time is the song Unarumee Gaanam from the Malayalam movie Moonnaam Pakkam. This song won singer Venugopal the Kerala State Award for the best playback singer the year the movie was released. Venu's soulful and effortless rendition is a treat to the listener. The music is by the maestro Ilayaraja. Here's my humble attempt to sing this song:

ghar se nikalte hi...
The song "Ghar Se Nikalte Hi" from the Hindi movie Papa Kehte Hain stands out from most other Hindi songs due to its enchanting melody. This was one of the songs that catapulted Udit Narayan to fame. Needless to say it's also one of my favorites.
